God, why did my momma leave me?

This juvenile Red -Tailed Hawk has been hanging around my yard (of course in the high trees!) for days now, not sure but he may have left for awhile he never came back tonight. He has been yelling as if he is calling his Momma to help him hunt, He flew over my head last night with a mouse at dusk, but I think he really loved that raccoon I found in the back near my woods, He finished it so he is off to hunt new things now!even though I needed a 1.4 tele-converter and a 500mm lens I am very happy, It is the first time I got a good shot of a Red Tailed Hawk in my yard!

p.s. it seems it may be a she, but I am not sure, He/She cry's like a girl... LOLbut I think also the juveniles are harder to tell but the female is larger than the mail and has less red on her tail... right now don't know if anyone can tell?

About Me

I love photographing nature, writing and creating self authored poetry and photo books,I am a happy grandma to my two beautiful Grandsons! I LOVE You hope you enjoy my photos, my art and my writing!
My book was composed with the full circle of life as the main subject.
The photography is all my original work from the hummingbirds to the eagles. The photos were meant to speak for themselves as a song of all that is beautiful ~ of birth, existence and life. My poetry is about emotions of faith, love, charity and death. My poetry reminds us that even though everything must die and we all face sadness ~ they were written to reflect on acceptance, giving and thanks for life.
Combined, the book expresses all that is beautiful, the appreciation of life and the acceptance that death is part of life.
In the solemn peace and serenity of wildlife and nature there is a uniting with God like nowhere else. when I take photo's of any living creature, I feel closest to God and all his mighty wonders bring me closer to the end of time, a time well spent and in touch with life and how short it really is... life's full circle.
As always ~ sharing life's journey,
Angel Cher
